Yogi Tea Classic is the signature infusion that launched the brand. Based on an ancient Ayurvedic recipe, this blend is a complex, warming, and deeply aromatic tea that combines a base of black tea with a traditional selection of "warming" spices. It is designed to invigorate the senses while providing a comforting, grounding experience.

Key Characteristics

• The Original Spice Profile: This blend is famous for its bold, balanced mix of cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves, and black pepper. The spices are carefully selected to provide a sensory experience that is simultaneously stimulating and soothing.

• (Note: As this is an organic brand, these are typically sourced from certified organic farms.)

Preparation Tips

For the most authentic experience, prepare this as a "Chai Latte":

1. Simmering: Unlike green or white teas, Chai spices and black tea benefit from being gently simmered. Add 1–2 teaspoons of the loose leaf blend to a pot with water and bring to a very gentle simmer.

2. Infusion: Let it simmer for 5–10 minutes to allow the spices to release their full essential oils.

3. Adding Milk: Add your choice of dairy or plant-based milk (oat or almond work beautifully) and a touch of sweetener (like honey or maple syrup) to the pot.

4. Strain: Strain into a mug and enjoy the rich, creamy, and spiced results.

Dietary and Allergen Considerations

• Vegan & Vegetarian: Completely plant-based.

• Gluten-Free: Naturally free from gluten.

• Caffeine Content: Contains caffeine due to the black tea base, providing a moderate, sustained energy boost.

• Allergen Safety: While the ingredients are natural, always check the packaging for any facility-specific warnings, as manufacturing lines may occasionally process other ingredients on shared equipment.
